OK folks – I know you’ve been waiting for four days to hear the Freeperati weep bloody tears over their failed coup.
Who am I to deny you a little schadenwhatsis?
Remember when John Wilkes Booth looked at his hands as he lay dying and muttered –“Useless…Useless.”?

“House passes senate budget compromise”
Since when is a traitorous gang rape of the United States considered a “compromise”?

Yes – but was it LEGITIMATE rape?
Or were the Republicans just asking for it?

Why do we even bother? Seriously wanting to take everything I’ve got and go to Panama. Only my love of my family stops me.

This is an epic disappointment.
We had Obama and Reid on the ropes. They had nothing. The House gave
them 14 (or was it 17) bills which funded everything in the government
except Obamacare.The onus of the shutdown was on the Dems, despite what
the left said, and most people were beginning to realize that.
In some alternate universe, maybe
All the Repukes had to do was stand shoulder to shoulder and not
budge. They could have broken the will of the Dems if they’d only done
that. They had the power of the purse on the House side, and all the
Dems had was Dingy Hairy’s obstructionism on the other.
We were almost there, and like they’ve done so often in the past, the
Republicans snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Those here who
remained pessimistic throughout this thing, have been vindicated. The
Pubbies have dropped the ball at the end zone, resulting in a 100 yard
Democrat run back for a touchdown, yet again.
And what did it cost Obama?Absolutely nothing.

I was listening to Robin Leach today, he’s a great human being God bless him..he was telling Stuart Varney how he came here over 40 years ago for the American dream, to get away from Socialism, which is just another tame way of saying Communism, he said look at America right now, he said its very close to becoming the Communist country he ran away from..look around, we are almost there and it scares the hell out of me
I guess he’s running out of Third World shitholes to extract cash out of, huh?
You dumb fuck – you’re licking the dick of an asshole who uses “Champagne wishes and caviar dreams” as a tagline –BUT HE DOESN’T MEAN FOR YOU!! He makes a living (or made a living) out of rubbing your stupid nose in the fact that there is a club, and you’re not in it,
Wish and dream on that little piece of reality, Palin-for-brains.
So – what to do, what to do?
Maybe you can win by lurching ever further to the right-wing fringe? Make your appeal more selective?

Only one way to know for sure. Challenge the leadership tomorrow. Somebody with money needs to send every idiot that voted for this an oversized Charlie Brown shirt and a football, with a demand that they wear it the day the Democrats screw us all on this deal.

Noticed that Tom Cotton and Shelly Capito voted “YEA”. Are these two not being hyped to challenge Dem Seats in AR and WV in the Senate? This is what you’re going to replace with and expect something better? Really?

I fear a purge of those who oppose the new masters.
Ask any of my ex wives. I’m not that easy to ‘purge’. This fight isn’t over yet. It’s one battle that didn’t go well.

I will GLADLY vote for an honest (meaning they are clear about who and what they are) communist (democrat) than vote ever again for a lying RINO.
I’ve had it! I will vote dem 100 times before I vote for one of those lying, faithless pieces of shoe-scraping.
Yes, it might be painful for a couple of years, but if those flea-bitten, lice-infested, lying GOP politicians think they are immune because the only other choice is a dem – SURPRISE you scum-sucker! I choose the dem!!! Why? Not because I like the dem – but because I HATE the RINO much more than I dislike the dem.
Primary the lying RINO in office – even with another RINO – then primary that RINO if they don’t get the message. Before we put another RINO back in office, we MUST vote dem.

In that case, some advice.
Don’t call the Democratic Party the “Democrat” anything.
It’s kind of a dead giveaway that you’re a teabagger.
Only if you beome unemployed, have a pre-existing condition, or are worried about maximum lifetime benefits…
None of them is ever pure enough. They’re all RINOs! They must all be purged! ONLY WHEN THERE IS NO ONE LEFT TO VOTE FOR WILL THE TEA PARTY FINALLY ENTER INTO ITS ULTIMATE TRIUMPH!
Psst, psst! And the *other* is secretly a citizen of CUBA!
The freepers had best retreat to their underground bunkers until the RINO stampede has passed. We’ll let them know when it’s safe to come out.
Really.
Aww come on, the idea of sending their Reps a Charlie Brown shirt and a football was cute. Thanks Tommy!
In line with the Tea Baggers / Freepers being a religion rather than a thoughtful political formulation, when they didn’t get what they wanted, it must be that their God was angry with them because of the lack of their purity of belief.
The only religious response is to double down on their purity. Self flagellation on the DC Mall would be to admit weakness which they can’t do. Which means they have to dismiss those false prophets who are RINOs and elect an even more extreme, purer form of Taliban.
At the same time, public opinion polls show how much the repubs lost in this little stunt. A lot of non-hard core Tea Baggers are seeing the dysfunctional nature.
As they like Ayn Rand, dare I say Gotterdamerung?
ONLY WHEN THERE IS NO ONE LEFT TO VOTE FOR WILL THE TEA PARTY FINALLY ENTER INTO ITS ULTIMATE TRIUMPH!
Ha ha! So true.
The tea-bagger ethos:
“The whole world is a bit strange except thee and me, and I’m not so sure about thee.”
